    Wanted to try the new overwatch since the other onr ran weird on my computer. Randomly went down to 5fps. Guess they are having bad launch day server issues xD @Blizzard_Ent

    Love it when you get in the top 100 for the queue then @Overwatch then it gives you an error resetting you back to 20k in the queue. Thanks @PlayOverwatch for the useful time saved

  • _FatJesus_ Fat Jesus📏🦵🥚 (@_FatJesus_) reported

    Whata world. So I've been on Cricket wireless for like five years now, it is most certainly not a pre-paid phone or service, I have a monthly bill. BUT I can't play Overwatch 2 cause apparently Cricket numbers are blocked by @Blizzard_Ent cause they're "prepaid." Whata joke haha.

  • Psych0Charizard HustlexCrowes #1 fan (@Psych0Charizard) reported

    Downloaded overwatch 2 and played for about 15-20 minutes and immediately uninstalled literally all my skins/emotes/stickers are gone and the game is broken as ever

    Splatoon 3: *Communication errors* Overwatch 2: *In Queue* (it's literally 1st hour so was gonna happen) Me: this is what I get for trying to play too many online games lately XD At least Dead by Daylight been fine though.

  • ttengnuzui TengenUzui (@ttengnuzui) reported

    Ty overwatch 2 for just made me loose my time for 1 hour and 30 min trying to enter. 7 completed queues of 30k people and always error on server. I'm done for today. Truly fans that stayed loyal all this time cannot get into game after waiting 6 long years to play something new..
